that's exactly what bill clinton did. you couldn't trust him, you couldn't trust a single thing he said. after 1994, he swayed to the right. he lied out of office, he lied in office. mitt romney compared to bill clinton is like saint mitt. >> it's very interesting that mitt romney's not running against bill clinton this time around. >> what are you describing? what are you describing -- i understand we're having an election in two weeks. you choose to believe that he is not returning to his moderate roots but let's talk about your candidate. >> who is my candidate? >> raising taxes -- i assume your candidate, from your column is barack obama. i'm assuming. maybe that's wrong. >> are you not an obama supporter? >> i am saying -- >> are you an obama supporter? >> you want to go ahead or you want to let me finish? >> yeah. sure. >> okay. what i'm saying is that i don't trust anything that comes out of mitt romney's mouth. and i am saying that i am not the only one. many of the people who now come on television to openly supp

mitt romney has been quoting bill clinton as of late. we'll see if he quotes him this time around with these new remarks. let's play it. >> i'm a little surprised that he only released a year's worth of tax returns. that's kind of perplexed me because it's the first time in more than 30 years that anybody running for president has only done that. the voters can make up their own mind about whether they think it's a good thing for a person who wants to be president to minimize his own tax liability by putting the money in overseas tax shelters. >> that's the former president speaking with savannah guthrie. might mitt romney start quoting that line from bill clinton? >> probably not. there's an increasing drum beat for mitt romney to release more tax records. he's released full 2010 and estimate to 2011 and we should be able to get that 2011 tax return later this fall. as we saw in january when newt gingrich, rick santorum, rick perry were leading the drum beat for mitt romney to release his taxes, he finally did release those 2010 returns

president clinton is sorry. he said it many times. he's very sorry. after going off message from president barack obama. and most of his party by saying that congress should extend the bush era tax cuts for everyone temporarily. now he says, hold on, hold on, hold on, i didn't have my facts straight. >> i'm very sorry about what happened yesterday. it was -- i thought something had to be done on the fiscal cliff before the election. apparently nothing has to be done until the first of the year. so i think he should just stick with his position and then negotiate with the republicans. >> it was very artful. by the way, he didn't say i didn't mean what i said, he just said i didn't mean what i said in november. john avlon is with me, john waldman and margaret hoover. michael, let me start with you. what's he doing? bill clinton knows that the bush tax cuts expire at the end of the year, not at election day so i don't buy this i didn't know the date. >> here's the thing. with him, whenever he says, something you get all these people saying aha, he's so m

chris: i saw bill clinton give a heck of a punching kind of speech. he punched back at every point from the republicans. how negative will they get? you say the obama campaign is running a personal assault on whether this guy, romney, is qualified to be president. >> the essence of what barack obama is doing is saying, mitt romney is is, a personal level, not credible as president of the united states. he's too greedy and too disconnected from concerns of the average american. the romney campaign are also running an intensely negative campaign, not based so much on obama's personal characteristics, his values or the idea that he's somehow in some sort of fundamental way corrupt. whereas the obama people are calling romney a charlatan, suggesting he might be a felon because of the -- how he's handled the bane issue, as stephanie cutter did. that's aimed at tearing him down personally. but i don't have any sympathy for romney, that's what he did. the republicans did that. chris: you keep count in the campaign of what romney said every day. do they feel
